Alzheimers

Alzheimers

One, two... who are you?

Three, four... been here before?

Five, six... what did I miss?

Seven, eight... wish I knew when I ate

Nine, ten... are you my friend?

Eleven, twelve... am I in hell?

Thirteen, fourteen... I love green

Fifteen, sixteen... my name's Kathleen

Seventeen, eighteen... is my face clean?

Nineteen, twenty... they feed me plenty

One, two... who are you?

Three, four... been here before?

Good morning Miss Marion! I'm told I have the early stages of this life-changing disease... but I have yet to feel the effectsΒ of it! I guess in the next while, it will become more pronounced! So you should be well aware of the signs! A sad ending to a very active life! Thank you for dropping byΒ dearΒ friend, love, Happy Jack XOXO

Hello Happy Jack...

You can slow the progression, be careful if they want to give you medication...

The Researchers have done an amazing job helping people fight it naturally...

Unfortunately, there wasn't that availability when my Grandmother had it...

I was just a kid then and the family out her in a home and I didn't have a say...

Kids should be seen and not heard...

Great awareness write!

Hugs...

Thank you muchly dear friend!!!! As I told Marion, I'm in the early stages of this life-changing disease and I don't really feel the effects of it!!! Sad taleΒ about your Grandma!!! Medical science is moving ahead at a blinding pace but I'm not optimistic that not fast enough to help me! As they say in french... c'estΒ la vie!!! Love and big hugs, Happy Jack XOX

Oh Jack...I'm so sorry, but I don't think you are any where near serious yet thank god. I think this is something most of us will get today...I have my own personal opinions as to why but modern living and living longer definitely contribute I think. Keep writing lovely Jack...write write write...don't give it room to take hold. Take good care of yourself xxΒ

That is so so sweet dear friend!!! I'm "determined" to hopefully postpone the inevitability as long as I'm able... wish me luck! I think this world is such aΒ loving place in spite of all the daily negativity. I'm still fascinated by all the interesting new gadgets and technology and space exploration and most of all, the documentaries on nature and the thousands and thousands of species that are yet to be discovered! I love life!!!!!! Thank you, dear friend... love, Happy Jack XOXOX
